We're looking for an engineer to own and evolve that infrastructure: cut deploy times and add safe rollbacks, push monitoring from "it alerts" to "it tells us what's wrong", harden our backup and disaster-recovery story, plan capacity and optimize cost across regions and providers, and drive the containerization of our Windows-based services. You'll move comfortably across Windows Server (.NET), MS SQL operations, Linux/Docker, and the networking and security layer that ties it all together — and you'll own incidents end-to-end, from response to root cause.

We're a fully remote, radically AI-first team: everyone — DevOps included — works in Cursor and Claude Code on a shared workspace, automating runbooks, scripts, and analysis instead of doing them by hand. If owning real production infrastructure and improving it pragmatically (we pick tools by workload and cost, not by hype) sounds right — read on.

What You'll Do

Reliability & scaling

• Own and evolve CI/CD pipelines: reduce deploy times, add rollback capabilities, implement blue-green or canary deployments.
• Improve monitoring coverage: build SLA-oriented dashboards, reduce alert noise, add synthetic checks.
• Harden backup strategy: automate verification, point-in-time recovery, disaster-recovery runbooks.
• Scale infrastructure: capacity planning, new region provisioning, cost optimization across bare-metal providers.

Modernization

• Evaluate and drive containerization strategy for Windows-based services.
• Improve secrets management.
• Build infrastructure observability.

Day-to-day operations

• Incident response and root-cause analysis.
• SQL Server operations: backups, availability, instance provisioning.
• Networking & security: firewall rules, routing, DNS/FQDN, TLS certificates, VPN management, access control.

You're the Right Person If

Requirements (must have): — 3+ years in DevOps / SRE / Infrastructure roles. — Strong Windows Server + IIS/Kestrel experience (.NET stack). — Azure DevOps pipelines (YAML, templates, variable groups, environments). — MS SQL Server administration (backups, replication). — PowerShell scripting. — Docker & Docker Compose (production workloads on Linux). — Networking fundamentals: iptables/nftables, NAT, VPN, TLS. — Configuration management: Ansible (playbooks, inventories, roles). — Monitoring: Datadog, Sentry, or similar; APM. — Experience and interest in AI-assisted work (we actively use various AI tools and provide team access to premium services). — English at B1+ (working day-to-day communication). — You can work remotely from anywhere in the world, as long as your timezone is no further east than UTC+5 — the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Western/Central Asia all work.

It'd Be a Plus If

• Proxmox / KVM virtualization.
• Container orchestration experience (Kubernetes, Docker Swarm).
• Bare-metal hosting experience (OVHcloud, Leaseweb, Hetzner, etc.).
• Experience migrating Windows workloads to containers.
• Terraform or Pulumi for infrastructure as code.
• Cost optimization for hybrid (bare-metal + cloud) setups.

What We DON'T Need

• Setting up CI/CD from zero — it's already running.
• Basic monitoring setup — already in place.
• A dogmatic "cloud or bust" approach — we choose infrastructure pragmatically based on workload and cost.

What You Can Expect

• Competitive compensation — aligned with senior DevOps / SRE experience; specifics discussed individually.
• Remote, worldwide: this role is open to candidates anywhere in the world whose timezone is UTC+5 or west.
• Home office setup: we provide a laptop, software, and any other tools necessary for work.
• Professional development: we cover 50% of the costs of relevant educational activities.
• Vacation: annual leave (twice a year for 2 weeks) + holidays.
• Employment: via Deel contract.
• AI-first engineering culture: we use Cursor, Claude, shared AI infrastructure, and premium team access — alongside strong infrastructure craft.
